The PlainsCraft Story

Dennis Steinman grew up in the rural heartland of Kansas. A true child of the country, he was no stranger to wagon travel! Here’s Dennis with his sister, friend, and faithful steed, the ever-patient Buddy. Their chariot: a wagon built by his father.

Dennis grew up with a love of pioneer history, which he maintained through decades spent building a thriving electronics manufacturing company. He and Donna have now turned their full attention to the design and construction of authentic prairie schooners, just like the ones he dreamed of and read about as a child. Donna grew up in the great state of Oklahoma where the western lifestyle was a remnant of the pioneer movement.

The two realized their dream and created their first functional designs in 2018, and now they bring their passion for covered wagons to outdoor hospitality providers around the country.
